Message: [QUOTE="8893, post: 3127607, member: 93"] Geez louise people. Have you never had Thai food with pineapple and hot peppers? The sweet from the fruit cuts the heat from the peppers; it's a natural pairing in that and many other cuisines. And adding sweet fruit to savory dishes is hardly a concept that is alien to Italian food. Raisins in meatballs? If you don't like the idea of pineapple you should try a pie with fig and speck, which is very Italian. Same exact concept as pineapple and ham though. We got four pies; three of them were traditional and we wanted to do something different with the other one. Would have been too boring for me otherwise. [/QUOTE]
